Conflict has erupted in Popontia as the Federation seeks to apprehend True Chapters cultists of the Far God cult.

Federal ships have been deployed in the Popontia system with the intention of detaining all cultists and seizing the Dedicant megaship. Governor Nadia Machado, representing Popontia Incorporated, declared:

"By order of President Hudson, all Thargoid worshippers are under suspicion of espionage and abetting our alien enemies. The True Chapters group is ordered to surrender for lawful questioning."

Popontia Incorporated has been tasked with overseeing this mission. Payment has been authorised for Federal auxiliaries and independent pilots willing to pledge their support in subduing True Chapters supporters.

These unprecedented hostilities were commented on by Dr Alfred Ulyanov, an academic authority on the Order of the Far God:

"This is the first time that members of this faith have not calmly accepted their own fate. According to my research, the First Apostle preaches that the Far God will transform her followers upon Its manifestation, allowing them to survive while the rest of humanity is extinguished. This has evidently motivated True Chapters adherents to abandon their wholly passive stance."

Both campaigns are being orchestrated by contacts in the system's primary starport, Ryman Market.

The two factions have set out seven-day campaigns, which will end when the top tier is reached by either faction or early on Thursday the 6th October 3308.

Conflict has erupted in Popontia as the Federation seeks to apprehend True Chapters cultists of the Far God cult.

The Workers of Popontia Free, which is sympathetic to the sect's right to practise its religion, was outfitting the Dedicant megaship for the chapter's use. Federal ships have been deployed in the Popontia system with the intention of detaining all cultists and seizing the megaship.

From the Testament megaship, the First Apostle of the True Chapters delivered a broadcast across public channels:

"The Dedicant will be a new home for us to await the Far God's arrival. We are prepared to die to defend this holy calling. Our recognised patrons in the Workers of Popontia Free will fight to protect us and reward those who aid our cause."

A fundraiser hosted by Princess Aisling aims to finance a support network for Imperial citizens affected by Thargoid aggression.

The Citizens' Relief Trust has been established in the Cemiess system, prompted by the loss of thousands of military personnel during the Battle of HIP 22460. She announced:

"While the Empire is focused on increasing its military strength, we must not forget the human cost of ongoing conflict with the Thargoids. Those who died in battle will be honoured by assisting the families and dependants left to mourn them. The Citizens' Relief Trust plans to establish support centres to ensure their financial and emotional needs are met."

"To raise funding, I have requested deliveries of Eshu Umbrellas, Xihe Biomorphic Companions and Chateau De Aegaeon. These luxury commodities will be auctioned or sold at a special gala I plan to host for Imperial nobility, with all proceeds used to establish this network. Wine and fish is also requested to serve to our distinguished guests."

"Although we cannot help those bereaved families who live beyond the Empire's borders, I hope that the Citizens' Relief Trust inspires the creation of similar charities elsewhere."

Pilots are asked to make their deliveries to Mackenzie Relay starport in the Cemiess system. Along with credits, the following paint jobs will be provided to qualifying contributors to a successful campaign:

Top 75%: Dolphin Excursion Blue paint job
Top 50%: Orca Asemic Black and White paint job
Top 25%: Beluga Expedition Blue paint job

These reward tiers are cumulative, with higher percentage qualifiers receiving the rewards from previous tiers also.

The campaign begins on the 22nd of September 3308 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.

At special request from Princess Aisling, Lavigny's Legion has been tasked with protecting those who are transporting these valuable cargos. Combat bonds will be reimbursed for all wanted ships that are destroyed in the system, and can be delivered to Mackenzie Relay starport in the Cemiess system.

The top 75% of contributors will also receive the Python Predator Teal paint job.

Swarms of Thargoid vessels have invaded the 42 n Persei, Chun Pindit and Tekkeitjal systems in an apparently coordinated attack.

Vox Galactica published this report by field correspondent Ernesto Rios:

"Since the Thargoids conquered HIP 22460 a month ago, their presence has gradually expanded in all directions. But these are the first inhabited systems to be invaded since the Proteus Wave incident, threatening a combined population of over seven million people."

Defensive operations are being orchestrated by Tekkeitjal Public Corporation from the starport Riemann Colony in the Tekkeitjal system. Thargoid combat bonds can be handed in at this location for increased credit rewards.

The first part of the campaign begins on the 12th September and will run until further notice. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the situation will be re-assessed.
